Hi, Am trying to follow
http://www.braynzarsoft.net/index.php?p=D3D11BD
This tutorial but I keep getting
An Invalid parameter was passed to the returning function.
When my code try to run
hr = D3d11Device->CreateVertexShader(VSBuffer->GetBufferPointer(), VSBuffer->GetBufferSize(), NULL, &VS);
I get a error message saying that An Invalid parameter was passed to the returning function and am not sure why :(
Thank you if you could explain it to me I also copy pasted my code in here if it was needed

I've noticed it is possible to successfully compile a shader into object code (array of DWORDs) and still have CreateVertexShader() fail with INVALID_PARAMETER if the original shader had invalid numbers of instructions, samplers, constants, etc.

What does the shader you are submitting look like?
Look like this :3

float4 VS(float4 inPos : POSITION) : SV_POSITION
{
return inPos;
}
float4 PS() : SV_TARGET
{
return float4(0.0f, 0.0f, 1.0f, 1.0f);
}
Perhaps your hardware simply doesn't support shader model 5?

Create the D3D11 device with the debug layer enabled (D3D11_CREATE_DEVICE_DEBUG device flag). This should give you more insight as to what could be wrong.
I also tried version 4, but it gave me the same error and I tried both on my lappy and station computer, my laptop should support version 5, cause atleast that what google said >.<, But I will try the Debug flag tommorow,unable to do it at the moment :(

This may seems a stupid question but is this the correct way?
hr = D3D11CreateDeviceAndSwapChain
(
NULL,
D3D_DRIVER_TYPE_HARDWARE,
NULL,
D3D11_CREATE_DEVICE_DEBUG,
NULL,
NULL,
D3D11_SDK_VERSION,
&amp;SwapChainDesc,
&amp;SwapChain,
&amp;D3d11Device,
NULL,
&amp;D3d11DevCon
);

I get no "compiler error" when I do this but nothing else really changed o.o
I tested a few things today and it seems like D3d11Device->CreatePixelShader somehow is the source of my problem, am not sure why but if I remove this my compiler doesnt complains any more about the CreateVertexShader but something else. Is it possible that the PixelShader returns onto the vertex and thus creating the problem? or is it cause I have DxErr included? I notice that in the the tutorial source file he does not have it cause it looks cleaner that way, but is it also the cause of my error?
When you compile your pixelshader you are providing a pointer to the Vertexbuffer rather than the Pixelbuffer.
[source lang="cpp"]hr = D3DX11CompileFromFile("Effects.fx", 0, 0, "PS", "ps_5_0", 0, 0, 0, &VSBuffer, 0, 0);[/source]
Should be:
[source lang="cpp"]hr = D3DX11CompileFromFile("Effects.fx", 0, 0, "PS", "ps_5_0", 0, 0, 0, &PSBuffer, 0, 0);[/source]

Yeha I noticed that to early today, biggest fail ever :(. but thank you :3.
